One of the useful ways to get around within a Microsoft Word document is with
Control-arrow. Control-left_arrow and control-right_arrow work the same in
OpenOffice, moving around one word at a time. Control-up_arrow and
control-down_arrow work confusingly differently. Doing a control up_arrow to
move the cursor up a paragraph, as would work in MSWord, has the surprisingly
confusing result of taking the current paragraph along for the ride, thereby
inadvertently scrambling the layout of the document. Control-shift-up/down and
Alt-up/down appear not to do anything at all.
A little experience of using OpenOffice can teach one to avoid using control-up
and control-down as a way to try to move quickly around the document, but is
there an easy way to move the cursor backwards and fowards a paragraph at a
time? (or even a sentence at a time?) My search of the help system did not
find one.

This is actually one of my favourite features of OOo. I love the ease to
move a paragraph around. I don't have to copy and paste the paragraph,
and maybe take and extra return with me. (GRRRR in Word)
